You're not going to find Nihari and Biryani at this spot. It's American food made with a "desi" twist.
Stepping into this place, it's an enigma wrapped in an enigma. Sholay isn't heavily advertised in your face so you don't know what to expect.
The restaurant name brings memories of the legendary movie and elite characters. Come on. Don't tell me you can't hear Amjad Khan's voice :)
Enough of me being Basanti . The place has: a large poster of Shah Rukh Khan, a pic of the Dalai Lama , and generic scenery pics. As you walk in you are promptly greeted by two American white people. The instinct as a desi is to run away but please resist this urge.
You find out the staff, are owners and chefs who love desi food. The "white dude" who is their head chef, couldn't be more "desi" when it comes to spices and food.
Loved the chicken wings and chicken kabob here.
Only con: they are only open till 7pm.
